Java question

[Cay Horstmann]

Beginner's luck, I guess. Try running

javaws http://www.horstmann.com/violet/violet.jnlp

to see what I mean.

I ran jEdit, and indeed it works ok. I didn't have to do anything with
Ctrl-n or Ctrl-p. The menus and dialogs all came up, just at weird places.

Speed is acceptable, both on the device and with ssh -X.

So...it seems to me that there would be a huge benefit of getting Java
to work properly on the device.
